A Visit to Nicaea
Author: C. Ray Wimberly, PhD
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 1977215130
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
This book “A Visit to Nicaea” is a search for truths and untruths in the Bible. Originally written by unknown Jewish scribes in the Hebrew and Greek languages, the Bible is the only source for many ancient and religious events. Nicaea was a small town in the 4th century AD, located near the Turkish city of İznik about 80 miles SE of Constantinople, and was the site where religious leaders convened in 325 CE to begin the process of creating the first Christian Bible. The Bible was finally canonized in 419 AD and Christianity was declared to be the official religion of the empire. Christianity at that time was only one of many religions that existed in the ancient world. Unfortunately, over time, the early Bible would receive numerous changes and eventually morph into many versions, resulting in a host of many beliefs and practices. This book begins with a review and discussion of recent scientific discoveries about early earth and primitive life as compared to what is written in the Revised Standard Version of the Bible, and then provides a summary of all the chapters of the Bible. It tries to provide an understanding of the seemingly unswerving faith that many religious practitioners have in the infallibility and power in the Bible, even though it has been shown to be seriously flawed. This book also presents the results of numerous biblical experts throughout the world who have reviewed and commented on the validity of many ancient writings, including a fascinating in-depth look into the Bible.
